The problem here is that we refuse to understand and accept that God is wiser than man. Just because you see inconsistency doesn't mean that there is inconsistency. The real problem here is not your refusal to accept that God is all powerful, it is your refusal to believe that you are powerless...

I agree about the wishy-washyness... we see it all the time ,even with professing Christians. However, the main problem here is this: Did Christ save man or simply make man saveable? If God came to save all men, and all men are not saved, then what happened? ~ God doesn't want to interfere...

Oh. I was genuinely confused. Thanks for the clarification. I will be sure to pray for Him. I didnt understand a word of what he was saying!

No offense, but either I am seriously missing some dialogue, or this guy doesnt make ANY sense.... anyone have a nonsensical speech translator handy?

firstly, I'd like to point out the blatant contradiction here. Secondly, The scripture references were to the creation story in Genesis and to God telling Jesus He has all power and authority, which shows if He wanted something done, it would happen. thirdly, notice the context of...

If He wanted something to happen it would happen. He spoke the universe into exsistence. All power has been given to christ in heaven and on earth... If he wanted something done, It would be. So the better question is if God wants all to be saved, what is stopping all from being saved? [and...

This is a matter of trusting God. Do we trust that, if God indeed chooses [which i believe that he does and has every right to], do we trust Him to save all those whom He wishes to save? Time and space itself are the creations of God, do we trust Him enough to believe He will in the end do what...

So... God looks into the future and sees that we will believe, and that is why He chooses us?

But if we dont accept the gift, how can we be saved?

So... If God never changes any of His ways, This means that we are either chosen or we do the choosing.

So, Christ died, but his blood is ineffective so long as I choose to make it so. I have more power in my own salvation than the blood of Christ.

And it also doesnt work by saying we have a God who changes His mind like a girl changes clothes. But please, do answer the previous question anyways, Im curious to see your thoughts.

1.) If Christ's Sacrifice was for all men, then why are all men not saved? If our wills are free, and not at all swayed by our natures, then why are all men not saved? Did Christ fail in His work of redemption 2.) If Bob accepts a gift that others reject, that puts Bob in a position of...

What errors? Please explain. Also, if you could, please answer my previous question.

What is your definition of free will? Because what you describe is impossible.

If people would just stop to consider that Limited is only used because it fits the acrostic tuLip, maybe we could get somewhere. People read limited, and instantly assume that they are experts in exactly what is is the Synod believed. Limited means Definite or particular. Jesus Christ indeed...

Hebrews 13:8. As much as I would love to take credit for writing this, I believe that this came from the mouth of God. An secondly, while it is true that God has many ways, each way is unified in its purpose and goal and does not change. Let me ask you this; If God's standards constantly change...

I do. Through His word, which states that He is "The same yesterday, and today, and forever." He Doesnt change his standards or His mind, like you claim He does.

So... God changes his mind and sometimes chooses some and sometimes lets us choose him? How is that fair to those who werent choosen?

... So... are we chosen or do we choose?
